My favorite Mecano song of all time! The story of a gypsy woman who makes a Faustian deal with the moon to get the man she loves in exchange for her first born. The moon delivers her part of the deal, but in a cruel twist, the gypsy's lover kills her out of jealousy after seeing the first born does not look gypsy at all. He abandons the newborn in the woods, and the moon ends up taking care of the baby. Most Mecano songs are like short stories, but this one is one of the best.
